Gold Leaf
Hello again everyone. I bought a Louis XVI furniture, the wood is painted with gold leaf?

or gold leaf, painting is disabled in some showing parts of the wood under it and I like to play it myself with gold leaf that can not afford an expert. My questions are: 1. Do you know a website that gives step by step instructions on how to do this? 2. Can pain with real gold come in liquid or aerosol. 3. Can I paint over gold that is already there? 3. If you use spray paint gold will decrease the value of the furniture?

The repair depends on whether your furniture is old, classical and new. In general, antique furniture should not be changed, because that will decrease the value. Antique furniture is usually gold genuine gold leaf. Dorado is a technical information on the link below. I touched up scratches on both gold leaf and painted furniture with gold metallic paint Modern Master, and found that "the Pharaohs Gold is a good match for most items. This is easy to use, with only brushes and is ideal for small repairs in the furniture old and new.
